A few pictures here of the gym, has the gym been redone? I can't recall what it looked like before. Needs to be painted under the stairs tbh.

Where did all the bring the madness back banners go

Thought the madness is what motivated us to avoid the spoon

Noice!

Agreed on the stairs, it’s the little things...

What more do you need. Can even learn club history between sets.

Isn't that what they call industrial chic?

They could put in a faux ceiling, but maybe they want the sound of all that metal clanging to reverberate through the ancient halls of Belmore, to awaken the spirits of long departed warriors!

You’ll probably find that’s the line somewhere in the tenancy agreement. Those stairs are the grandstand above which is not owned by the club and perhaps not even part of its tenancy agreement which covers the centre of excellence, the office space, use of the field etc. often landlords will pay for certain fit-out aspects based on the length of the agreement but they rarely cover structural items. So yeah, it is the little things, but sometimes those things aren’t in your control...

That cazzo Dean Pay will probably turn up with his clip board wondering why Montoya, Holland, Cogger aren’t there and why Chris Smith ain’t got the C next to his name

Preseason starts in 7 days?

Where are all the machines and benches?
Looks like they only have the squat racks...

Maybe every day is going to be leg day?

I thought getting rid of Pay helped a lot in that regard.

Heard that Furner might have had some say in this as well?

It's definitely different - here's footage from 2014:

Looks like alot of the machines are gone and there's much more focus on power-lifting and strength training. Leave the cardio for the field work. Definitely a step in the right direction.

Steven John Folkes a true local hard nut and Bulldog legend, may he rest in peace.

Barrett won't have to bring his own equipment to this great club like he had to at Manly.

Yeah there is no BYO component at the Dogs, Barrett can leave his plastic chairs stacked up at home in the garage, and this time around his players wont be changing out of the boot of their cars.

As the old saying goes "No pain, no gain". We have looked notoriously unfit in games compared to our rivals these past years......let the torture begin
